Jenna, When is the next FOMC meeting ? I have it listed at May 16th, is that correct ? I was hoping it was at the end of April so it might save the market. Thanks for the help. HJ

Using NT as an example. Should I have held? Are you kidding. I should have sold and I had many opportunities but it was a "great stock don't worry about it sort".. Well that's fine but I do worry. Now when I get into NT I'll get in on the bottom and ride it back up. I might not time it exactly but I'll sure time it better than staying through a 80% haircut. And there is no catching falling knives because if I get in 'wrong' and its just a 2-3 day rally I'll do like it did with FLSH, FLEX, TLGD, PHTN... hold it as long as it rallies (that could be easily for 25-40% and then sell).. Why sell? Because if it comes back that much so quickly, I'm suspicious. I know there will be yet another bottleneck and buyers will leave. So we are not talking about scalping for 3 or 5%, we'll leave that for the daytraders. We are looking for a strong double digit gain and when we have it TOO QUICKLY, we are out. If I'm wrong, I'll get back in. But for a real rally I would have to see 8 to 10 day days of higher highs and closing prices higher than than the previous day, otherwise its a 'relief rally'. And for me my relief can come in 10-25% gains.
